The Greatest Books: The 'Biblioteca' List

This list is one of the 122 used to compile the master list at thegreatestbooks.org (TGBO). The 'Biblioteca' list has a weight of 80 out of 100 (which means it had a large influence on the rankings of the fiction books at TGBO).
To quote TGBO "38 Argentinean authors were polled by the Argentinean government for their favorite books. This is a tally of all books with more than 1 vote". Unsurprisingly there is a healthy dose of works originally written in Spanish.
4-8: Tied for 4th place
9-18: Tied for 5th place
19-41: Tied for 6th place
